Become an AHLS Provider

Each AHLS Provider Course is taught by a board-certified toxicologist, physician, and other AHLS Instructors. These expert instructors train healthcare professionals to become AHLS Providers and care for victims of hazmat incidents and toxic terrorism.

Small-group, interactive, tabletop exercises are included in all the AHLS Courses.

The AHLS Provider Course begins with a multiple choice pre-test to assess participants' current knowledge and serves as a excellent study resource for the multiple choice post-test. Healthcare professionals who achieve at least 80% on their post-test are verified as AHLS Providers for four years.

The AHLS Instructor Course concludes with a multiple choice exam. Healthcare professionals who achieve at least 80% on this post-test become AHLS Instructors.
